3. No compounding mistakes

Mistakes are going to happen in this game, for both teams. With as bright of a spotlight as their will be on this game, the pressure will be ramped up which will cause both sides to make some costly mistakes at some point. But the team that doesn't allow one mistake to turn into two will probably be the team that wins this game.

We've all seen it before. A quarterback throws an intereption and then just doesn't look the same the rest of the game. Or maybe it's a defense having a coverage breakdown, or missing a key tackle, and that player checks themseleves out of the game from that point on.

Georgia cannot allow this to happen.

Making the occasional mistake is okay, that's going to happen in any big game especially at this point in the season. But what is unacceptable is letting mistakes compound. That is the quickest way for Georgia to play themseleves out of this game and end up getting blown out by this Texas team.
